I stumbled on some videos, you know, the kinda ones that just autoplay when you’re bored and scrolling. There’s this whole thing about whether the Egg – and I mean *the* Egg, that kinda philosophical “we’re all the same person reincarnated” thing – is actually, y’know, *real*. And honestly? It’s kinda cute. Like, some people are REALLY into it. But then you see these comments, and it’s like, dude, chill. It’s a story. A nice story, sure, but like Santa Claus, ya gotta eventually realize it’s, well, not *literally* true. Though, I guess if believing it makes you happy, who am I to judge? Live your best Egg life, I guess?
Then, completely different, I found videos of people showing how to spot a fake egg. Like, the *actual* fake eggs. Apparently, there’s a whole black market for ’em! I didn’t even *know* that was a thing. It’s kinda disturbing, honestly. Who’s out there making fake eggs and why?? Are they even edible? I’m genuinely concerned. And 1.2 MILLION people are watching LIVE videos about it?! What is happening to the world???
And THEN, because the internet is a weird and wonderful place, I saw a video about… a fake egg dessert? Vermouth mousse with mango puree. Sounds kinda fancy, actually. Like, the kinda thing you’d find in a pretentious restaurant where everything costs $30. But, I mean, if you’re gonna make a fake egg, might as well make it taste good, right? I dunno, maybe it’s just me, but I’d rather have a real egg, scrambled with some cheese. Simple is better, ya feel me?
And THEN, OH MY GOD, the Egg Crack Challenge. Seriously? People are cracking eggs on each other’s foreheads? I mean, I get it, the internet is all about silly challenges, but, like, is that really necessary? Seems kinda… painful? And messy. Also, what a waste of eggs! Especially if they’re *real* eggs. Which, presumably, they are? Unless… are people using fake eggs for the Egg Crack Challenge? That’s a whole new level of messed up. My brain hurts.
